New Patients
Welcome — here is what to expect
Your first visit is about understanding your goals, your history, and your current oral health. There is no pressure to commit to treatment at the first appointment.
How it works

About 60 to 90 minutes total. Comfortable clothes, your insurance card, and a list of current medications are all you need.
